Thumbs down Craptastic day!

Freak accident at work today, started to climb my ladder... proceeded to tear ligaments in my upper arm. Went to an urgent care center, referred to an orthopedic surgeon. Looks like I am going under the knife next week. FML

Nope, tendons that connect the bicep muscle to the bone near the elbow. My right bicep is kinda of distorted looking right now.

Probably looks like my left one. I fell from a ladder a couple years ago, fractured my pelvis, partial tear of the rotator cuff and partial tear of a bicep tendon. Thought everything was fine now, moved some lumber and bags of cement a couple weeks ago and something gave out in my left bicep. It doesn't really hurt, a little sore but it doesn't look right.

Thumbs down

Just an update, had a follow up doctors appointment on Thursday. Still no MRI, etc. I am going nuts being stuck at home and limited as to what I can do. I am going to see if anything develops Monday. If not, Tuesday I am going to go apes**t on some people. It has been eight days since this injury happened. Damn good thing I didn't break a leg!
